Abstract

This paper proposes new dual-band impedance transformers based on the L-section circuit topology. The proposed circuits consist of a transmission line section with a stub line either at the source or at the load end. The dual-band operating conditions are analyzed in detail and simple design equations are derived in terms of the line lengths and impedances for the different circuit topologies and load conditions. The dual-band operation is confirmed through the design, fabrication and measurement in microstrip circuits based on the proposed method.

본 논문에서는 L-형 회로구조에 기반한 새로운 이중대역 임피던스 변환기를 제안한다. 제안된 회로는 전원 또는 부하단에 하나의 스터브 선로가 부착된 전송선로를 사용하여 구성된다. 각 회로 구조와 부하조건에 대해 이중대역 동작조건을 자세히 분석하였으며 이로부터 선로의 길이와 임피던스 등의 이중대역 설계 공식을 간단한 형태로 유도하였다. 제안된 방법을 이용하여 이중대역 임피던스 정합회로를 설계하고 마이크로스트립 회로로 제작, 측정하여 이중대역 동작을 확인하였다.
